	How do I get Linux to treat its serial port as a terminal oldest 
trick in the book I know but for somreason I have serial terminals sitting 
around and I figure I can get them to work if I just add a line into 
/etc/inittab but what is the line. I think is somthing like

7:2345:respawn:/sbin/mgetty ttyS0

but this don't work. 

Any ideas, perhaps what I need is a Unix hack from the seventies....
